As part of government's efforts in making the entire country clean, the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has cut sod for the construction of the third solid waste Facility in the Ahafo regional capital Goaso.

The President has already cut sod in the Bono East and Bono Region earlier in the week, and the Ahafo Region will be the last Region to benefit from the project.

Okokodrofour Nana Boakye Dankwa chief of Fawohoyeden in the Ahafo Region on his part eulogized the President and the Jospong Group.

"I saw the sanitation issue of our land and that's why I gave this land to the Jospong Group and the President. Creating fertilisers from this final product will be great for the farmers in the community because most of the people in the community are farmers. It will also create jobs for the youth in the area. 50 acres of land has been released for the project to commence."

Nana Wireko Apem II, Krotinhene of Kumuom on behalf on the Omanhene of Kukuom Traditional area Osahene Kwaku Atakyi revealed that ‘this place has been a dumpsite for so many years so we thought the land was going waste.”
